Unless you’re visiting somehow who already lives there, it’s unlikely you’d venture down this quiet midtown cul-de-sac. Perhaps that’s why this 2007 brick-and-stone home, built by the current owner with impeccable finishes, sold below the original asking price.

But located just a few blocks from Yonge and St. Clair — which in addition to good schools, parks and transit is in the midst of a retail revival — the 3,191-square-foot house includes all the requisite high-end features.

There are high ceilings (10 feet on the main floor, nine on the second), oak hardwood floors throughout, four gas fireplaces and a butler’s pantry. Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with heated floors, and the 1,655-square-foot lower level includes a fourth bedroom with a three-piece ensuite.

45 Glen Elm Ave.

The 32×122-foot lot has a professionally landscaped garden (accessible from the kitchen/family room) as well as a patio for al fresco dining.

There were 41 showings, says listing agent Elise Kalles. The final price was a slight discount for the buyer, and 96 per cent of the asking price for the seller.
